Tornadoes Containing the Highest Tornadic Wind Gusts Observed by Radar

Can you properly name the towns in which Doppler/RaXPol radars have observed anomalously high wind gusts?

The height at which these gusts were observed is not considered relevant to the quiz. Certain wind gust values may have been acquired through extrapolation of wind speeds to a particular height above radar.

For shared wind gust values, answers are chronological.
